  • Yes, it’s bad. It’s not super bad, or anything (this isn’t GoT) but the more you think about it, the less sense it makes. It mostly just rushed, not well thought out conclusions. Some conclusions create glaring plot holes (the upside-down explanation makes it impossible for the Russians to have opened a portal to the upside-down, for instance).

    Mostly it commits the most egregious sin of not taking itself seriously. End of S4, shit is completely fucked in Hawkins with the ground being ripped up by the massive portals. Beginning of S5, the portals have been tacked over with sheet metal and never once matter.





  • Someone made that cake mix, though. A team of people came together, worked out how to make that mix at scale, tasted, iterated, and finally shipped the product.

    This is getting cake mix by scooping up a random amount of the statistically most likely ingredients for a cake. No thought, no idea, no quality control even. Just the most statistically likely cake mix.

    Sounds fuck awful, man.




  • Be an asshole if you want. Just know that people aren’t gonna let you pretend you’re not hurting people by saying that.

    If you can’t find a way to be funny without punching down, you’re just not very funny. Confusing uncomfortable chuckles for genuine mirth is understandable, if it’s all you’ve ever heard.

    Edit: lol at the edit
